Elusives Journal Club

Jorge Torres will lead discussions on two papers: First 3D reconstruction of a blast furnace using muography & Dark Matter stimulated neutrinoless double beta decay.
Members in the departments of physics and astronomy who work on dark matter and neutrino-related fields are invited to get together to discuss papers related to their field. Topics include: neutrinos, dark matter, BSM physics, fundamental symmetries, precision physics and more.
Contact Xiran Bai and Glenn Richardson for more information.

NPA Seminar, Flavio Cavanna, FERMILAB and University of L’Aquila, "The path of the DUNE Experiment at a turning point."

Getting there! DUNE with two 17kt LAr TPC Far Detector (FD1-FD2) modules, a Near Detector Complex and a Neutrino Beam with an intensity of 1.2 MW is well on its way to start physics in 2028 at SURF (SD). Mass Ordering and sensitivity to Maximal CPV - the initial goals of the flagship Long-Baseline (LBL) Neutrino Program - are within reach. 
The time has come to define a strategy to achieve the ambitious ultimate precision in the LBL physics goals and possibly further expand the DUNE science scope into the low-energy domain of rare underground physics and BSM searches.

Special Seminar: Shelly Lesher, University of Wisconsin - La Crosse, "Evidence-Based Inclusive Mentoring Practices"

Mentoring of undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral researchers is an important part of any scientists’ career. Research has shown that a good mentoring relationship can be one of the most important factors in determining students’ persistence in graduate school and recruitment of underrepresented students into the STEMM community. Although the importance of mentorship is understood, very few faculty have ever participated in a mentor training program and few structured training events are provided, especially for academics early in their career.

Dissertation Defense: Hannah Bossi, Yale University, "Novel Uses of Machine Learning for Differential Jet Quenching Measurements at the LHC"

At sufficiently high temperatures and pressures, QCD matter becomes a hot and dense deconfined medium known as the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP). Collisions of relativistic heavy-ions are used to recreate the QGP, providing a rich laboratory for exploring the mysteries of the strong interaction. The intrinsic and dynamic properties of the QGP are probed with jets, narrow cones of particles resulting from the scattering of quarks and gluons with a high momentum transfer.

EHS Orientation for Wright Lab Research Shop Users

Wright Lab will host three identical 1-hour Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Shop Orientations on Wednesday, January 18 at 10:00 a.m., Tuesday, January 31 at 10:00 a.m., and Friday, February 3 at 11:30 a.m. The EHS shop orientation is offered each semester and is required to be taken once by anyone who would like to gain access and make use of the research and teaching shops at Wright Lab.
